Ex-NFL player: Charge teens who trashed my N.Y. home

ALBANY, N.Y. >>
Former NFL offensive lineman Brian Holloway, whose second home in
upstate New York was trashed by partying teens earlier this month, said today he is now pursuing charges.

Holloway said that after
waiting more than three weeks for trespassing teens to take
responsibility, he signed papers authorizing the sheriff to bring
charges in the Labor Day weekend party that drew up to 400 youths.

"Everyone
that broke the law, I'm pressing charges against," Holloway told The
Associated Press. "The parents had a chance and students had chance to
come forward, and only four did."

The Rensselaer County sheriff's office said no charges had been filed in the case as of Thursday morning.

Holloway,
who played offensive tackle for the New England Patriots and Los
Angeles Raiders in the 1980s, gained national attention by reposting
party pictures the teens had put up on social media sites. Holloway said
he posted them on the website helpmesave300.com in an effort to get the
teens to come forward, take responsibility for their actions and change
their behavior.

Instead, he said, some parents were angry about his website and there was even a threatened lawsuit.

"I made the best effort I can to communicate," he said.

Holloway
has said the partiers caused at least $20,000 in damage to his rural
vacation home near the Massachusetts border, including broken windows
and holes in the wall.

He said today he would leave it to the
authorities to decide on proper charges, but he expects "waves" of
arrests in the coming months.
